Uh... Sorry but it's pretty hard to imagine something more annoying than

to see any benefit from this... :S Ditto for manpages.
How could that slip through the initial testing of the ebuild
performed by the developer doing the version bump?
Well, it could happen while testing an ebuild. :) I'd be pretty ticked
if I were testing Qt and I didn't realize they did change the doc files
around before doing a test run.
Besides that though, imho, a simple function with a boolean return type
shouldn't kill the script executing it. Throw a warning, yes, but not
stop everything.
